The morning after my crazy pub crawl, I woke up at my Couchsurfing host's flat quite hungover around 10:00. Mustering my energy to get up, I packed up my things as it was my last day staying with him before I had to go meet my other host, who happened to be a friend of …

Hello, bloggers! This January, I had the opportunity to go to Budapest. Considering that I had two-and-a-half months off from work, I'd decided to go all-out and travel as much as possible. Although I'd been to Budapest back in 2016, I was keen on returning. Plus, flights were cheap, so it gave me more of …

Hello! In February, I had a one-week break from work. Instead of jetting off to some new destination outside of the country (let alone city), I chose to stay at home to rest and also save money. However, I wasn't going to be cooped up in my apartment the whole time, as I was keen …

Bonjour! After my half-day trip to Carcassonne the previous day, I headed out once more for another day trip in Southwest France. This time, I would be going to Albi, a small historic town located about an hour northeast from Toulouse. Although I'd just heard of Albi the month prior (thanks to a friend who'd …

Bonjour! Since hearing about this historic, medieval-walled city, I had been keen on visiting Carcassonne while in France.

Bonjour! After four nights in Paris following the New Year, I wasted no time heading south of the country to the city of Toulouse. Likewise with Paris, I planned to spend four nights in the Southwest and make day trips to other cities nearby to explore more of what the region had to offer. I …

Bonjour! While staying in Paris after the New Year, I also decided to use it as a base for a day trip to Amiens, the capital city of the Picardy region in northern France. I'd been interested in going since my days of living in Normandy, but it wasn't until then that I got around …

Bonjour! Following my morning's visit of Paris, I decided to get lunch near rue Mouffetard, one of the lively streets near the Latin Quarter. Of all things that I could've eaten for lunch, I chose Korean food, namely because I really missed it. Although I didn't have high expectations for Korean cuisine in France, I'd …

Bonjour! After my trip to Italy and Spain over the Christmas holidays with my family, I returned to France to ring in the New Year with some of my close friends in my small city. It was only a few days later that I decided to jet off again, as I didn't want to waste …
